Hi Everyone,   As I am often asked for a simple bare metal example code illustrating the use of the accelerometer transient detection function, I have decided to share here one of my examples I created for the FXLS8471Q accelerometer while working with the NXP FRDM-KL25Z platform and FRDM-FXS-MULT2-B sensor expansion board.   This example code complements the Python code snippet from the AN4693. The FXLS8471Q is set for detection of an “instantaneous” acceleration change exceeding 315mg for a minimum period of 40 ms on either the X or Y axes. Once an event is triggered, an interrupt will be generated on the INT1 pin:   void FXLS8471Q_Init (void) { FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(TRANSIENT_THS_REG, 0x85); // Set threshold to 312.5mg (5 x 62.5mg ) FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(TRANSIENT_COUNT_REG, 0x02); // Set debounce timer period to 40ms FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(TRANSIENT_CFG_REG, 0x16); // Enable transient detection for X and Y axis, latch enabled FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG4, 0x20); // Acceleration transient interrupt enabled FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG5, 0x20); // Route acceleration transient interrupt to INT1 - PTA5 FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG1, 0x29); // ODR = 12.5Hz, Active mode } ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍     In the ISR, only the interrupt flag is cleared and the TRANSIENT_SRC (0x1E) register is read in order to clear the SRC_TRANS status bit and deassert the INT1 pin, as shown on the screenshot below.   void PORTA_IRQHandler() { PORTA_PCR5 |= PORT_PCR_ISF_MASK; // Clear the interrupt flag IntSource = FXLS8471Q_ReadRegister(TRANSIENT_SRC_REG); // Read the TRANSIENT_SRC register to clear the SRC_TRANS flag in the INT_SOURCE register EventCounter++; } ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍       Attached you can find the complete source code. If there are any questions regarding this simple example code, please feel free to ask below. Your feedback or suggestions are also welcome.   Regards, Tomas

Hi Everyone, This tutorial is a detailed guide on how to import an ISSDK based example project (e.g. mma845x_interrupt) into MCUXpresso IDE, build and run it on the Freedom board (e.g. FRDM-KL27Z). If you intend to use another ISSDK example project/board, you can always follow this guide. A complete list of MCU boards, sensor kits and sensors supported by ISSDK is available in the ISSDK Release notes. 1. Download the FRDM-KL27Z SDK Open a web browser, navigate to the MCUXpresso homepage and select “Login to view configurations” to start a new configuration. You will be redirected to login to nxp.com. Enter your account information or register for a new account. Back on the MCUXpresso homepage, select the drop-down box to create a New Configuration. Select the board (FRDM-KL27Z) from the list and provide a name for the configuration. Select “Specify Additional Configuration Settings” to choose the Host OS, Toolchain (MCUXpresso IDE) and Middleware (ISSDK). Select Configuration Settings: Host OS (example: Windows) Toolchain/IDE (MCUXpresso IDE) Middleware (ISSDK) Once the configurations are set, select “Go to SDK Builder”.   Select “Request Build” to download the SDK. Once the build request is completed, download the SDK. Agree to Software Terms and Conditions. Unzip SDK to a folder (e.g. SDK_2.2.1_FRDM-KL27Z). 2. Import the SDK_2.1.1_FRDM-KL27Z into MCUXpresso IDE Open MCUXpresso IDE. Set the workspace directory of your choice and click on OK. Switch to the Installed SDKs view within the MCUXpresso IDE window. Open Windows Explorer, and drag and drop the SDK_2.2.1_FRDM-KL27Z (unzipped) file into the installed SDKs view. You will get the following pop-up so click on OK to continue the import.   The installed SDK will appear in the Installed SDKs view. 3. Import and build the ISSDK based mma845x_interrupt example project Find the Quickstart Panel in the lower left hand corner and select Import SDK example(s) Click on the FRDM-KL27Z board and then click on Next. Use the arrow button to expand the issdk_examples category, and then click the checkbox next to mma845x_interrupt to select that project. Then, click on Next. On the next screen, click the checkbox to Redirect printf/scanf to UART so that the terminal output gets sent out the UART instead of using semi-hosting through the debugger. Then click on Finish. Now build the project by clicking on the project name in the Project Explorer view and then click on the Build icon in the Quickstart Panel. You can see the status of the build in the Console view. 4. Run the mma845x_interrupt example project   Now that the project has been compiled, we can flash it to the board and run it. Make sure the FRDM-KL27Z board is plugged in, and click on Debug ‘frdmkl27z_issdk_examples_sensors_mma8451q_mma845x_interrupt’ [Debug] MCUXpresso will probe for connected boards and should find the OpenSDA debug probe that is part of the integrated OpenSDA circuit on the FRDM-KL27Z board. Click on OK to continue. The firmware will be downloaded to the board and the debugger started. Open a Terminal program (e.g. Tera Term) and connect to the FRDM-KL27Z COM port that it enumerated as. Use 115200 baud, 8 data, 1 stop, no parity. Start the application in the MCUXpresso IDE by clicking the "Resume" button. The application is now running and signed 14-bit accelerometer output values are displayed on the terminal. To modify the initial register settings of the MMA8451 accelerometer, find the mma845x_Config_Isr[] structure and change it according to your needs. Well done if you managed to follow along and get it all working. If there are any questions, do not hesitate to ask below. Your feedback or suggestions are also welcome. Regards, Tomas

Reading and Writing to SD Card Description: A small project made with mbed (mbed.org) on the FRDM-MK64 using the SD card capabilities. The program will open a file called test.txt in the root of the SD card, and will create one if it does not exist. It will then write "one two three four five" in the .txt file. It will then read the text and output the result. You will need a terminal application (I recommend Termite) in order to see the outputs. The current program overwrites anything that was previous on the SD card. To prevent this, change the "w" to "a" during the writing process. This changes the instruction from a 'write' to an 'append'. This should be compatible with all boards that have an SD card connected. However the appropriate pins from SDFileSystem will have to be changed to suit the board. Check your board's schematic for the appropriate pins.

The FRDM33772BSPIEVB serves as a 6-channel and FRDM33771BSPIVB as a 14 channel battery cell controller with a passive cell balancing. A FRDM-KL25Z evaluation board is used for communication with FRDM3377xBSPIEVB and a computer through SPI interface. The kit together with BATT-6EMULATOR 6-cell battery emulator  for the FRDM33772BSPIEVB and BATT-14EMULATOR 14-cell battery emulator for FRDM33771BSPIVB or a battery pack BATT-14AAAPACK for either of them is dedicated to support customer development and evaluation. For a status reading and settings an MC3377x EvalGUI is used. Figure 1. FRDM33771SPI evaluation board Figure 2. BATT-14AAAPACK battery pack Figure 3. BATT-14EMULATOR to supply MC33771 EVBs MC3377x EvalGUI The Graphic User Interface MC3377x EvalGUI is intended to use for evaluation of MC3377x cell controllers. Figure 4. MC3377x Evaluation GUI version 4.02 Hardware setup The GUI supports two types of BMS architectures. Central, only one cluster and distributed, up to 15 clusters. For the central BMS architecture an MC33771 EVB or MC33772 EVB must be stacked on top of an FRDM-KL25Z board. One of the battery emulators or the battery pack is connected through a 34-pin cells connector. For the distributed BMS architecture a MC33664 evaluation board stacked on top of a FRDM-KL25Z is used. The MC3377x evaluation boards are connected to the MC33664 EVB through a twisted pair TPL bus. Connection to a computer is made through OpenSDA port on FRDM-KL25Z and USB on the computer side. Figure 5. FRDM-33771SPIEVB stacked on top of FRDM-KL25Z and BATT-14AAAPACK connected as central BMS architecture After hardware setup is done start the MC3377x EvalGUI and follow instructions for Initial Configuration in MC33771/772 Evaluation GUI Documentation. For access click info->Open docu in MC33771/772 Evaluation GUI. Figure 6. Access to MC33771/772 Evaluation GUI document When the initial configuration is done, voltage reading of every battery cell and overall voltage of all connected batteries in series is enabled. However current measurement is disabled by default. Figure 7. Battery cells measurement with current measurement disabled Enablement of current measurement is done in Cluster view by setting a Bit9 (IMeasEn) in in SYS_CFG1 register to logic 1. The field changes from dark green to  light green and the current measurement is enabled. Figure 8. Enablement of the current measurement Figure 9. Current measurement enabled Current in the GUI is displayed in mV and for the current consumption has to be calculated. Because shunt resistor is Rshunt=100mΩ and measured voltage 1.243mV, thus for this case the current consumption is I=Ushunt/Rshunt = 12.43mA. The shunt resistor has to be chosen so the voltage doesn’t exceed +/-150mV. The voltage is sensed on SENSE_P and SENSE_N pins of the MC3377x controller. Figure 10. Shunt resistor R1 on the BATT-14AAAPACK It’s also possible to use a resistor in the battery pack as a load. The resistor is not populated. Recommended value is 1kΩ, 3W , SMT 2512. The resistor can be connected and disconnected with SW3 switch. Figure 11. Recommended load resistor R7 and toggle switch SW3

Hi Everyone, In this document I would like to present a simple example code I created for the FRDMKL25-P3115 kit using the KDS 3.0.2 and KSDK 2.0. I will not cover the Sensor Toolbox – CE and Intelligent Sensing Framework (ISF) which primarily support this kit. The FreeMASTER tool is used to visualize both the pressure/altitude and temperature data that are read from the MPL3115A2 using an interrupt technique through the I 2 C interface. This example illustrates: 1. Initialization of the MKL25Z128 MCU (mainly PORT and I 2 C modules). 2. I 2 C data write and read operations. 3. Initialization of the MPL3115A2. 4. Output data reading using an interrupt technique. 5. Conversion of the output values from registers 0x01 – 0x05 to real values in Pascals/meters and °C 6. Visualization of the calculated values in the FreeMASTER tool. 1. As you can see in the FRDMSTBC-P3115 schematic and the image below, with jumpers J7 and J8 in their default position (2-3), the I 2 C signals are routed to the I2C1 module (PTC1 and PTC2 pins) of the KL25Z MCU. The INT1 output is connected to the PTA5 pin and configured as push-pull active-low output, so the corresponding PTA5 pin configuration is GPIO with an interrupt on falling edge. The configuration is done in the BOARD_InitPins() function. void BOARD_InitPins(void) {     CLOCK_EnableClock(kCLOCK_PortC);                                            /* Port C Clock Gate Control: Clock enabled */     CLOCK_EnableClock(kCLOCK_I2c1);                                             /* I2C1 Clock Gate Control: Clock enabled */     PORT_SetPinMux(PORTC, PIN1_IDX, kPORT_MuxAlt2);                             /* PORTC1 (pin 56) is configured as I2C1_SCL */     PORT_SetPinMux(PORTC, PIN2_IDX, kPORT_MuxAlt2);                             /* PORTC2 (pin 57) is configured as I2C1_SDA */     CLOCK_EnableClock(kCLOCK_PortA);                                            /* Port A Clock Gate Control: Clock enabled */     PORT_SetPinMux(PORTA, PIN5_IDX, kPORT_MuxAsGpio);                           /* PORTA5 (pin 31) is configured as PTA5 */     PORT_SetPinInterruptConfig(PORTA, PIN5_IDX, kPORT_InterruptFallingEdge);    /* PTA5 is configured for falling edge interrupts */     NVIC_EnableIRQ(PORTA_IRQn);                                                 /* Enable PORTA interrupt on NVIC */ } 2. The 7-bit I 2 C address of the MPL3115A2 is a fixed value 0x60 (defined in the MPL3115A2.h file) which translates to 0xC0 for a write and 0xC1 for a read. As mentioned before, the SCL line is connected to the PTC1 pin and SDA line to the PTC2 pin. The I 2 C clock frequency is 100 kHz. The I2C_Init() function is used to enable and configure the I2C1 module. void I2C_Init(void) {     i2c_master_config_t config = {     .enableMaster = true,     .enableStopHold = false,     .enableHighDrive = false,     .baudRate_Bps = 100000,     .glitchFilterWidth = 0      };     I2C_MasterInit(I2C1, &config, 24000000U);     I2C_MasterTransferCreateHandle(I2C1, &p_handle, i2c_master_callback, NULL); } The screenshot below shows the write operation which writes the value 0x39 to the CTRL_REG1 register (0x26). Here is a burst read of 5 bytes from registers 0x01 to 0x05. It also shows how the INT1 pin is automatically deasserted by reading the output registers. 3. At the beginning of the initialization, all MPL3115A2 registers are reset to their default values by setting the RST bit of the CTRL_REG1 register. The DRDY interrupt is enabled and routed to the INT1 pin that is configured to be a push-pull, active-low output. Further, the OSR ratio of 128 is selected and finally the part goes into Active barometer (eventually altimeter) mode. void MPL3115A2_Init (void) {     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1, 0x04);               /* Reset all registers to POR values */     Pause(0xC62);          // ~1ms delay     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, PT_DATA_CFG_REG, 0x07);         /* Enable data flags */     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG3, 0x00);               /* Push-pull, active low interrupt */     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG4, 0x80);               /* Enable DRDY interrupt */     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG5, 0x80);               /* DRDY interrupt routed to INT1 - PTA13 */     I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1, 0x39);               /* Active barometer mode, OSR = 128 */     //I2C_WriteRegister(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1, 0xB9);             /* Active altimeter mode, OSR = 128 */ } 4. In the ISR, only the interrupt flag is cleared and the DataReady variable is set to indicate the arrival of new data. void PORTA_IRQHandler(void) {     PORT_ClearPinsInterruptFlags(PORTA, 1<<5);                /* Clear the interrupt flag */     DataReady = 1; } 5. In the main loop, the DataReady variable is periodically checked and if it is set, both pressure (eventually altitude) and temperature data are read and then calculated. if (DataReady)                  /* Is a new set of data ready? */ {     DataReady = 0;     I2C_ReadMultiRegisters(I2C1, MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_P_MSB_REG, RawData, 5);                      /* Read data output registers 0x01-0x05 */     /* Get pressure, the 20-bit measurement in Pascals is comprised of an unsigned integer component and a fractional component.     The unsigned 18-bit integer component is located in OUT_P_MSB, OUT_P_CSB and bits 7-6 of OUT_P_LSB.     The fractional component is located in bits 5-4 of OUT_P_LSB. Bits 3-0 of OUT_P_LSB are not used. */     Pressure = (float) (((RawData[0] << 16) | (RawData[1] << 8) | (RawData[2] & 0xC0)) >> 6) + (float) ((RawData[2] & 0x30) >> 4) * 0.25;     /* Get temperature, the 12-bit temperature measurement in °C is comprised of a signed integer component and a fractional component.     The signed 8-bit integer component is located in OUT_T_MSB. The fractional component is located in bits 7-4 of OUT_T_LSB.     Bits 3-0 of OUT_T_LSB are not used. */     Temperature = (float) ((short)((RawData[3] << 8) | (RawData[4] & 0xF0)) >> 4) * 0.0625;     /* Get altitude, the 20-bit measurement in meters is comprised of a signed integer component and a fractional component.     The signed 16-bit integer component is located in OUT_P_MSB and OUT_P_CSB.     The fraction component is located in bits 7-4 of OUT_P_LSB. Bits 3-0 of OUT_P_LSB are not used */     //Altitude = (float) ((short) ((RawData[0] << 8) | RawData[1])) + (float) (RawData[2] >> 4) * 0.0625; } 6.  The calculated values can be watched in the Debug perspective or in the FreeMASTER application. To open and run the FreeMASTER project, install the FreeMASTER 2.0 application and FreeMASTER Communication Driver. Attached you can find the complete source code written in the KDS 3.0.2 including the FreeMASTER project. If there are any questions regarding this simple application, do not hesitate to ask below.

FXLS93xxx 是NXP针对底盘安全领域的PSI5接口的加速度传感器。FXPS71407BPS 是NXP针对气囊中侧碰，行人保护等应用推出的PSI5接口的压力传感器。 FXLS93xxxx/FXPS71407BPS 芯片出厂时，COMMTYPE中COMMTYPE[2:0]被设置成0x1. 除COMMTYPE中这一位，其它寄存器默认值都是0. 虽然都是QFN 4mm x 4mm 封装，但pin脚顺序不同，PCB不共用 下面仅介绍了在PSI5模式下最常配置的几个寄存器，其它的配置请参考对应的datasheet 芯片烧写OTP前，有默认模式(un-programmed PSI5)输出 PSI5-P16C-500/2L with 400 Hz, 4-Pole low-pass filter.   SOURCEID_0, SOURCEID_1, SOURCEID_2, SOURCEID_3的配置 SOURCEID_0, SOURCEID_1 对应CH0 SOURCEID_2, SOURCEID_3对应CH1 具体的CH0 和CH1对应的加速度传感器在datasheet 第一页中可以找到       注：PIS5异步模式(Async mode), 仅SOURCEID_0 有效   例： FXLS93220, 这是X单轴的，它仅能使用Channel 0, 所以配置中仅能配置SOURCEID_0 或 SOURCEID_1 。   FXLS93421, CH0对应的是X轴Middle-g, CH1对应的是Z-axis Low-g的加速度传感器。 如果要使用Z-axis Low-g的加速度传感器，则配置SOURCEID_2 或 SOURCEID_3，如果一个同步周期内只需发一组加速度值，则配SOURCEID_2 就可以了。     SOURCEID_0 中PDCMFORMAT[2:0]，例：PSI5需要配置为P16CRC-1000/3H ，数据需要以16-bit 输出, 则配置PDCMFORMAT[2:0] =0b1xx   PSI5_CFG （$25） 最常需配置的位 P_CRC（默认是奇偶校验，写1是CRC校验），ASYNC（默认是Sync mode, 同步模式， 写1改为异步模式Async） EMSG_EXT 如果模块的spec里没有特别要求，建议写1，因为在模块失效时，可以提供更多的失效信息，便于做FA. PSI5_CFG 其它位的配置主要看系统的结构或接收端是否支持。 PDCM_RSPSTx（$26-$2B) 在Sync mode下，PDCM_RSPST0，PDCM_RSPST1，PDCM_RSPST2，PDCM_RSPST3 对应于SOURCEID_0, SOURCEID_1，SOURCEID_2, SOURCEID_3 的数据开始发送的时间, Start time, 这里配置的是tTIMESLOTx的值， tA_SYNC_DLY只有50-600ns.   例： SOURCEID_2的数据开始发送的Timeslot start time是244 μs, 则配置PDCM_RSPST2_L = 0xF4 通过配置的SOURCEID_x选择对应的CHx_CFG_U1，CHx_CFG_U2，CHx_CFG_U3，CHx_CFG_U4，CHx_CFG_U5进行配置。 PDCM_CMD_B_L($38) PDCM_CMD_B_H($39) PSI5 Command Blocking Time 全0为默认值450us. CH0_CFG_U1($40), CH1_CFG_U1($48) 根据产品需求，在下表中选择合适的LPF[3:0]和SAMPLERATE[1:0]. 该滤波器更详细的内容见Low-pass filter 章节     CH0_CFG_U2($41), CH1_CFG_U2($49)  寄存器U_SNS_MULT[7:0]的配置需结合CHx_CFG_U1中USER_SNS_SHIFT[1:0]一起配置。通过这个配置，可以得到对应的sensitivity和g-range. 具体计算可以参考uGen6UserSensitivityMultiplierCaculation.xslx 文件。注：PSI5 10-bit数据输出范围是-480 ~ 480 LSB, PSI5 16-bit数据输出范围为-30720 ~ 30720 LSB. （这是PSI5协议规定的） CH0_CFG_U3（$42）, CH1_CFG_U3 ($4A) CHxDATATYPE0 和 CHxDATATYPE1 , 默认是使能Offset cancellation自动归零功能的。通过这个寄存器配置，可以关闭该功能。 MOVEAVG[1:0] 默认是使用的LPF, 通过MOVEAVG[1:0]配置，可以关闭LPF, 使能平均值滤波。 CH0_CFG_U4($43), CH1_CFG_U4($4B) INVERT 如发现数据输出的正负和期望值是相反的，则将该位置1 假设将传感器转90度，即Offset为1g，当OC_FILT[1:0] 为0时 则由于OC Rate Limiting 的速度是1LSB/4s for PSI5 10-bit(or 16LSB/s for PSI5 16-bit). 如果1g对应的输出是32个LSB （PSI5 10-bit），则需要32*0.25 = 128s实现1g的自动归零功能。 如果使用0.04Hz，OC_FILT[1:0]=1，关闭OC Rate Limiting功能，则 18.36sec 实现归零 final value (+/-1%) . （最快的） 如果使用0.005Hz，OC_FILT[1:0]=2，？   CH0_U_OFFSET_L（$55), CH0_U_OFFSET_H($56), CH1_U_OFFSET_L($5D), CH1_U_OFFSET_H($5E) 当测量轴向在重力加速度方向，则需要配置该寄存器。配置的具体值参考uGen6UserSensitivityMultiplierCaculation.xslx 文件。例如FXLS93421, 当使用Z-axis在垂直方向时，由于重力加速度的耦合，使Offset超过了400mg，PSI5总线会报Offest Error信息（EMSG_EXT=1）或是Sensor Defect Error信息（EMSG_EXT=0）. 以上仅是FXLS93xxxx/FXPS71407BPS最常做的配置，注意FXPS71407BPS和FXLS93xxxx的配置还是有很多区别的，如只支持10-bit PSI5 输出，所以请以对应的datasheet为准。

Hi Everyone, In one of my previous documents I presented a simple example code/demo that reads both the altitude and temperature data from the Xtrinsic MPL3115A2 pressure sensor and visualizes them using the FreeMASTER tool via USBDM interface. This time I would like to share another example with the MPL3115A2 programmed to measure pressure (barometer mode) and temperature. The Freescale FRDM-KL25Z board coupled with the Xtrinsic MEMS sensors board was used for this project. The initialization of the Kinetis KL25Z128 MCU remains the same, the only small change is in the initialization of the MPL3115A2, this time the barometer mode is selected with the OSR of 128. void MPL3115A2_Init (void) {      unsigned char reg_val = 0;                 I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1, 0x04);               // Reset all registers to POR values          do            // Wait for the RST bit to clear      {        reg_val = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1) & 0x04;      } while (reg_val);      I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, PT_DATA_CFG_REG, 0x07);         // Enable data flags      I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG3, 0x11);               // Open drain, active low interrupts      I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG4, 0x80);               // Enable DRDY interrupt      I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG5, 0x00);               // DRDY interrupt routed to INT2 - PTD3      I2C_WriteRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, CTRL_REG1, 0x39);               // Active barometer mode, OSR = 128           } In the main loop, both pressure and temperature data are read and then calculated as follows. if (DataReady)          // Is a new set of data ready? {                  DataReady = 0;           /* Read both the pressure and temperature data */                       OUT_P_MSB = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_P_MSB_REG);             OUT_P_CSB = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_P_CSB_REG);             OUT_P_LSB = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_P_LSB_REG);             OUT_T_MSB = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_T_MSB_REG);             OUT_T_LSB = I2C_ReadRegister(MPL3115A2_I2C_ADDRESS, OUT_T_LSB_REG);                                  /* Get pressure, the 20-bit measurement in Pascals is comprised of an unsigned integer component and a fractional component.      The unsigned 18-bit integer component is located in OUT_P_MSB, OUT_P_CSB and bits 7-6 of OUT_P_LSB.      The fractional component is located in bits 5-4 of OUT_P_LSB. Bits 3-0 of OUT_P_LSB are not used.*/                       Pressure = (float) (((OUT_P_MSB << 16) | (OUT_P_CSB << 😎 | (OUT_P_LSB & 0xC0)) >> 6) + (float) ((OUT_P_LSB & 0x30) >> 4) * 0.25;                          /* Get temperature, the 12-bit temperature measurement in °C is comprised of a signed integer component and a fractional component.      The signed 8-bit integer component is located in OUT_T_MSB. The fractional component is located in bits 7-4 of OUT_T_LSB.      Bits 3-0 of OUT_T_LSB are not used. */                          Temperature = (float) ((signed char) OUT_T_MSB) + (float) (OUT_T_LSB >> 4) * 0.0625;                                                        }         As usual, the calculated values can be watched in the "Variables" window on the top right of the Debug perspective or in the FreeMASTER application. The complete source code written in the CW 10.3 as well as the FreeMASTER project is attached to this document. If there are any questions regarding this simple application, please feel free to ask below. Your feedback or suggestions are also welcome. Regards, Tomas

Hi Everyone, As I am often asked for a simple bare metal example code illustrating the use of the accelerometer vector-magnitude function, I have decided to share here one of my examples I created for the FXLS8471Q accelerometer while working with the Freescale FRDM-KL25Z platform and FRDM-FXS-MULT2-B sensor expansion board. This example code complements the Python code snippet from the AN4692. The FXLS8471Q is set for detection of a change in tilt angle exceeding 17.25° from the horizontal plane. Once an event is triggered, an interrupt will be generated on the INT1 pin: void FXLS8471Q_Init (void) {      FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_THS_MSB_REG, 0x84);            // Threshold value set to 300mg or ~17.25°    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_THS_LSB_REG, 0xCC);          FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_CNT_REG, 0x01);                // Debounce timer period set to 80ms          FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITX_MSB_REG, 0x00);    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITX_LSB_REG, 0x00);    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITY_MSB_REG, 0x00);    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITY_LSB_REG, 0x00);    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITZ_MSB_REG, 0x10);          // Set Z-axis to 1g  as a reference value    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_INITZ_LSB_REG, 0x00);          FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(A_VECM_CFG_REG, 0x78);                // Event latch enabled, A_VECM_INITX/Y/Z used as initial reference, acceleration vector-magnitude detection feature enabled          FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG4, 0x02);                     // Acceleration vector-magnitude interrupt enabled    FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG5, 0x02);                     // Acceleration vector-magnitude interrupt routed to INT1 - PTA5          FXLS8471Q_WriteRegister(CTRL_REG1, 0x29);                     // ODR = 12.5Hz, Active mode } In the ISR, only the interrupt flag is cleared and the  INT_SOURCE (0x0C) register is read in order to clear the SRC_A_VECM status bit and deassert the INT1 pin, as shown on the screenshot below. void PORTA_IRQHandler() {    PORTA_PCR5 |= PORT_PCR_ISF_MASK;                              // Clear the interrupt flag    IntSource = FXLS8471Q_ReadRegister(INT_SOURCE_REG);           // Read the INT_SOURCE register to clear the SRC_A_VECM bit   } Attached you can find the complete source code. If there are any questions regarding this simple example code, please feel free to ask below. Your feedback or suggestions are also welcome. Regards, Tomas

This is a pre-release version of the Sensor Fusion Toolbox for Windows.  It is essentially the same tool you already know and love.  It differs in terms of the binary images that can be downloaded to your development board.  Clicking File->Flash from the toolbar will present you with a set up updated binaries.  These were built using a brand new set of 6- and 9-axis Kalman filter algorithms.  We expect these to consume much less power (2X or 3X) and to have better gyro tracking.  We are soliciting feedback from existing users of the toolkit with regard to performance of the new filters.  We do not expect to formally release until later in Q2, primarily to give the community time to try them and give us feedback.  We are not releasing source just yet, for the same reason.

System for environmental noise monitoring, with capacity of data storage at micro sd memory, option of wireless communication with computer and other systems to form a sensor network. This project consists on the design of a noise pollution level metering system, using a sound sensor board. Its value in the health area lies in prevents ear diseases and other conditions due noise pollution. The capability to create a sensor network, allows generating a statistical study, as well a more detailed study of the noise propagation patterns or the noise pollution source itself. The acknowledgment of the noise level enable to know the actions required to decrease this kind of pollution without expose human ear. It has several source codes: the main folder is that called "SSProyectoSonometro" which contains the three modes of operation. The other folder called "XbeePracticaDataSender" contains the source code for reception and sending data by Zigbee communication. The video has to be watched with the best quality that Youtube allows for a good viewing.

I am occasionally asked for the source code for the Android version of our Sensor Fusion Toolbox.  Well, here it is, complete with new NXP graphics and updated links.
